Not really a TRT question but thought I'd ask the experts (Test Prop)
Hey guys,
I'll be running a var only cycle shortly. It will be a 6-7 week cycle at around 50mg ed.
The reason it's var only is because I'm extremely sensitive to DHT related sides, so any exogenous test scares me somewhat.
I realise that var could cause suppression of natural test by around 50-60% from week 4, so thought that if absolutely necessary I could supplement with the lowest TRT dose of Test Prop that would help.
The question then is, what would be the lowest TRT dose of prop that would help in this situation? Considering suppression might be at around the 60% mark, and that I am extremely DHT sensitive, I'd like to err on the side of caution and use the absolute minimum amount necessary. It is only temporary, and if necessary will be run from weeks 4 through to 6-7.
I know that Prop given it's short half-life is not really the ester of choice for TRT, but in my case I think it's the most suitable. I'd need it to act quickly, but would also like to be able to get it out of my system quickly if I start experiencing sides I don't like.
Any recommendation from you fellas would be much appreciated.

Sats and cycle history
Your basicly looking for a low dose of test to run with your cycle that's makes more sense when asked like that.
but I need your stats and history before I would touch this question
32yo
Lifting since 2003.. more seriously (diet, etc) from about 2007.
5'9"
180lb
I hover between 9-11% bf most of the year. Sometimes up to 14%ish during winter whilst trying to bulk (like now).
Ran a cycle of Superdrol when it just came out. I think it was pretty much the harshest oral compound I could've thrown at my body at the time. Kidneys and liver didn't like it. Ran full support supplement protocol and PCT. Otherwise no AAS experience.
I've been using peptides for a few months. Currently stacking mod grf/ipam/follistatin.
Essentially I want to avoid using test if I can.. but realise that var will likely suppress my own test production by up to 60% at around week 4. If I can get by on 40% test levels for the last 2-3 weeks I will, but I will get bloodwork and if it looks like I need to add test, I want to understand what the minimum dosing protocol would look like just to keep T levels ticking along. I don't want my T levels to go above normal (DHT issues) but would like to keep them somewhere in range.
